Below is the 5’–3’ strand of a double-stranded DNA molecule with the following nucleotide sequences (all belong to an exon): 5’ C C T A T G C A G T G G C C A T A T T C C A A A G C A T A G C 3’ 1. If the above DNA strand is the coding (sense) strand and the DNA molecule is transcribed that produced a functional mRNA. Assuming there are no mutations, the said mRNA is then brought to the site of protein synthesis, a. what would be the amino acid sequence of the synthesized polypeptide chain? b. how many possible kinds of tRNA molecule that will bring the 2nd amino acid observing wobble hypothesis? List down their anticodons.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
